Styling Ideas Bought on consignment, doubting my choice

Edit: Woah, this is blowing up. To clarify a little, I have adhd and suffer really bad from choice paralysis when it comes to making big decisions like this. Thank you so much for all of your kind comments and suggestions. I’m definitely just stuck in my head too much, but now I will move on and be happy with my choice. Thank you again, you’re all so nice and it’s really lifting me up 😭

Hi everyone! I had my first (and only) dress appointment on Saturday at a local consignment store. It was my dream to buy on consignment but now I’m kind of regretting it because I can’t return it and I’m having second thoughts. On the one hand, this dress was still new out of the bag so I can make whatever alterations I want (budget permitting.) I just need some hype, because I can’t return this. Everyone is telling me that I’m being crazy for doubting myself but the dress ended up being so different from what I thought I was going to get. But I couldn’t stop saying “oh my god” when I was in it. I just feel like it looks a little… dated? And I loved the blush color when I had it on but now I keep seeing all of these beautiful white dresses and my brain just can’t handle it.

If anyone can give me some hyped and some styling tips, I’d really appreciate it! My wedding is in October next year. I’m thinking a plain tulle veil, but I don’t know what length I should do. Accessory tips, anything is welcome. I’m worried that the dress is “too much” because I wanted something a little more modern, initially. So maybe I scale it back on the accessories?

Hi again everyone. Follow up to my post on my wedding dress search. I've seen a lot of recommendation and I'm thinking of this Lilas Lace Dress. These are models and past brides. Looks good?

For more context, my wedding is set for December right after Christmas in Africa. We agreed that the first step would be to get the wedding gown then find the groom's suit that matches with it.

I have a dress similar to this and I’m thinking chapel veil but not sure if I should go lace or pearl or one where it’s throughout the whole veil or just the edges. Definitely do not like plain one tier veil. Any suggestions?
